We have officially started our summer vacation but the last few weeks of school were awesome! We concentrated on our living books and child-directed learning. We will definitely be doing more of that in the fall, God willing. Hannah is a diligent student, always willing and excited to learn something new.
She decided to make a poster of bugs using a book she had gotten out of the library called, "Incredible Insects" . I was so impressed with her drawings and her enthusiasm.
This is her finished product with the pictures and names of each bug.
My favorite drawing is the Monarch Butterfly, she really payed attention to detail on this one.
A fun summer activity would be making these into flash cards, having the kids draw them and guess each others creatures.
We all got a kick out of this one.This guy looks like he is getting ready for a karate match. The kids were all imitating his stance, I think it was actually a scene in " Karate Kid".
Hannah has proven herself this year, not only is she a good student but she is a great helper around the house as well. She is incredible with baby boy; I don't even have to ask and she changes him when he wakes up. I am so blessed to have such a special daughter!
